Nigel, Gironde, France , “Ex-professional photographer”
+ If you can hold a camera steady this is a good lens for a good price.
- This is a lens for an experienced photographer. Such a telephoto is not easy to hold still and a beginner or inexperienced amateur should buy one with an image stabaliser, even if it means waiting to save up the money. Camera shake is very likely otherwise, and you would not be getting the best out of this worthy lens.

I'm an amateur photographer, this item was cheap considering what it is and compared to similar products.
I never thought for the amount this lens cost I would get a Canon.
- Bit long, when extended !
